Pharmacology is the study of the interaction between the human body and drugs, and it provides the scientific basis for drug
therapy. It clarifies how drugs are absorbed, distributed, metabolized, and excreted in the body (pharmacokinetics), the relationship
between dosage and efficacy, and the mechanisms of interaction (pharmacodynamics). It also studies the functions of biologically
active substances such as neurotransmitters and autacoids, and deepens understanding of the mechanisms of action, side effects,
and target diseases of the therapeutic drugs that interact with them.
In this lecture, we will systematically study everything from basic knowledge to clinical applications, with the aim of cultivating
the ability to make practical contributions in a variety of fields related to pharmaceuticals in the future.
- The basic mechanisms of drug action can be outlined.
- The student can outline intracellular signal transduction and intercellular communication.
- The safety of pharmaceutical products can be outlined.

The final grade will be based on a combination of the report (70%) and the presentation (30%). A grade of 60% or more is considered
to be a passing grade. A grade of 60% is equivalent to a level where the student can understand the content of the textbook
and lecture handouts and explain the content to others. It is also a level where the student can smoothly understand the content
of the research after being assigned to a laboratory.
